Heather Stewart, Economics editor The Observer, Sunday 26 June 2011 http://www.guardian.co.uk DSCG SUJET N° 4 DATE : 3 novembre 2011 APRÈS-MIDI DSCG 2011 – UE6 Épreuve orale d'économie se déroulant partiellement en anglais 2/2 DOCUMENT Co-operative sector has grown by more than 25 % since credit crunch – report From Scottish cyclists to Yorkshire farmers, thousands of Britons have turned their back on dog-eat-dog capitalism and opted to do things for themselves, according to a new report which shows the turnover of co- operatives has grown by more than 25 % since the credit crunch. Ed Mayo, the secretary general of Co-operatives UK, which represents the sector, said : "We've seen lots of new- start co-operatives emerge, which reflects a DIY(do it yourself) type of culture." 5 Until recently, the co-operative was regarded as an outmoded model. But since the limits of shareholder capitalism were brutally exposed in the recession, their all-in-it-together approach has won new converts. "One of the things that comes out of the credit crunch is : how do we avoid this lemming effect of everyone doing exactly the same thing ?" said Mayo. The annual report from Co-operatives UK, to be published this week, shows that while big players such as the 10 John Lewis Partnership and the Co-operative Group have been performing strongly, a new generation of smaller, grassroots organisations has also grown up. Co-operatives UK highlights the examples of Seven Hill Farmers, a group of lamb producers on the North York Moors who banded together after the foot-and-mouth disease crisis to get a better price for their products, and Energy4All, which works to establish community-owned windfarms to generate local energy. 15 Villagers are taking over local shops and pubs to rescue them from closure; football fans are setting up their own clubs in an effort to return the sport to its roots; and credit unions are stepping in where the big banks fear to tread. Between them, Britain's co-operatives now have almost 10 million members, and their turnover in 2010 was £16.1bn, up from less than £13bn in 2008. Ged Holmyard of the Edinburgh Bicycle Co-operative, which was founded in the 1970s and now owns a chain 20 of stores, says worker ownership creates a special kind of culture. "From the start, the ideology of our founders was that a workers' co-operative was an intrinsically good thing," he says. "It gives everyone a stake in the business." If the shops have had a good year, every employee in the company gets the same cash bonus, and the ratio between the highest- and lowest-paid workers is five to one – much lower than in most firms. 25 Some MPs including Chuka Umunna (Labour Member of Parliament for Streatham) from the Treasury select committee, are urging George Osborne to consider a mutual model for bailed-out bank Northern Rock, which the chancellor plans to put up for sale before the end of the year. uploads/Finance/ ue6-epreuve-orale-d-x27-economie-se-deroulant-partiellement-en-anglais.pdf
